Last year, Steph Page wanted to do something to honour the memory of her baby niece, Layla. Little Layla was born prematurely at 24 weeks and cared for at the City Hospital Neonatal Unit. She sadly passed away in February 2016. Steph signed up to take part in the Robin Hood Half Marathon to thank staff who took care of Layla. But, whilst Steph was training for the Half Marathon, her nephew, Zane, was born 2 months early. He was cared for by the same team who looked after his sister. Going through a similar experience again gave Steph the drive she needed to finish the gruelling race and to raise £1,255.64 in memory of Layla. Part of this sum was donated by Experian UK, who very kindly match-funded £250 of Steph's sponsorship money. Steph presented a cheque to Neonatal staff this week, and brought along Zane, who is now a happy and healthy one year old. Neonatal doctors and nurses were delighted to see Zane toddling around the Unit, giving high five to the nurses who took care of him when he was a tiny baby We're so honoured that Steph chose to fundraise for the Neonatal Unit. Her donation is a lasting tribute to Layla's life and will enhance the care of thousands of other premature and poorly babies for years to come 💞 If you would like to take part in the Robin Hood Half Marathon 2018 to thank hospital staff for their care, visit our website: https://www.nottinghamhospitalscharity.org.uk/events/ikano-robin-hood-marathon-half-marathon/ Ikano Bank Robin Hood Marathon Events Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust
